The New York Sun of August
6 thus comments editorially upon
the present situation:
THE SOCIALISTS AND MIR. GEORGE.
1T has been evident all along
that Mr.. Georges new party
would be compelled eventually
to declare itself positively with re-
gard to Socialism, and already the
time has come. The Socialists
having determined to assert them
selves at the coming state conven-
ton Of the party at Syracuse, Mr..
George announces in advance that
there must be a bold expression
of opinion as to their views, and
rather than that these should be
endorsed" the Socialists must be
sent apart from the labor army OF
which he is the leader.
The difference between the
Socialists and Mr.. George is that
they have logical system to de-
fend, and he has not. They pro-
pose to deal radically with the
evils Of society by constructing it
on a new basis. He proposes only
a single measure of relief. and in
consistently refuses to carry his
land theory to its logical conclu-
sions. If the state may take the
land, why may it not go further
and take all property and control
and conduct human affairs gener-
ally. as the Socialists propose?
Their theory of society invites Sc
rous discussion. IS his does not,
and it is likely to be long debated
after his land device has been for
gotten.
The Socialists, too, are more
concerned about propagating their
views than in achieving any tenn
porary and local political success.
They voted for Henry George last
autumn, not because they had any
faith in the efficacy of his land
nostrum, but in the hope of scat
tering the seeds of Socialistic doc
trine. They were not prepared by
any means to make a hero of him
and to become tools for his use in
working out his personal and po-
litical ambitions. They meant
rather to use Mr.. George them
selves. and from the first were
ready to sacrifice him to their So
cialistic principles.
Therefore. now, when he says
that they must go from his new
party while he stays, they are
pretty sure to drop all association
with him. If the convention sus-
tains him. as it probably will, the
United Labor Party will have to
get along without their votes.
That is, the party will lose its
best organized band. its very nu-
cleuS, and the labor ranks will be
still further divided. But Mr..
George has made up his mind that

An Interesting Conversation Over

can't say as it is any good.
M.-You don't seem satisfied
with things.
S.-Why should when l work
hard every day and get nothing
but bread and butter; when those
that do nothing have everything
that's nice. .l'
M.-Oh, but they have money
and don't need to work.
S.-Yes; but how did they get
it?
M.-They saved it.
S.-No sir! they stole it from
you and me. That's how they got
it!
M.-Oh! you believe in divid-
ing up everything then like the

alarming symptoms present themselves,de-

the malady to the lungs. Indeed, SO various
are the symptoms that the presence of the
disease is not always known or even sus-

Chronic Bronchitis.

Chronic Bronchitis is also an infamma-
ton of the mucous membrane of the bron-
chiai tnbes. When cold settles on the
lungs the disease either ends in bronchitis
or pneumonia. If 1t ends in bronchitis 1t
usually passes Off as a cold on the chest,
| and still the patient does not feel entirely
well. He feels tired and languid, aud is in
capable OF taking his usual amount OF exer-
else. and experiences a shortness of breath
with more or less warmth in the palms of
his hands. Soon after this a coug h appears.
accompanied by an expectoration of thick
mucus, followed by he flush, loss of
tinue, when the patient assumes all the ap-
pearances o. having genuine case of con-
sumption. But this Is simply catarrh of the
lungs or chronic Bronchitis.
In the later stage of the disease the mucus
| membrane of the larger bronchial tube
softens, while in the smaller tubes and air
cells OF the lungs the mucus membrane be-
comes congested and infammed. There
are no cayaties nor tubercles in the lungs
but merely wasting away of the larger
bronchial tubes, and death takes place
from obstruction of the bronchial tubes and
air cells of the lungs. The patient dies
from exhaustion and suffocation, being
unable to expectorate the mucus which
accumulates in the passage leading to the
lungs, which in some cases is sticky and
copious, of light straw or yellowish green.
Oiteutimes streaks of blood make their ap-
pearsnce in the mucus. and at times there
is disagreeable smell. Persons thus af.
hicted are very liable to take a cold, at
which time the mucus becomes clear and
frothy, and it is not uncommonly the case
that the patient dies in one of these attacks
